Travel to Canada


Entry into Canada

Nonimmigrant students and scholars in the United States who wish to travel to Canada must have in their possession:

  • Valid passport
  • Valid I-94 form
  • Valid travel document (I-797, DS-2019 or I-20)
  • Evidence of sufficient funds for period of stay
  • Evidence of return trip arrangements

In addition, citizens of certain countries may be required to apply for a Canadian entry visa. A list of those who must apply for visas and the latest information about visa requirements may be found at the Citizenship and Immigration Canada Web site.

We also suggest that you review Important Immigration and Travel Information for International Students and Scholars at Penn, which displays frequent travel advisories.
